I just lost two close relatives who were also friends today. We grew up as kids and they were about a year or two older than me. I’ve always been aware of death and accept it but when stuff like this happens, it’s a really strong reminder of how we’re all moving along in the line towards the end.
I get they different people has different cultural ways but I think it would mean a lot of you came to a funeral just support your family members. It is highly respectable and could mean a lot to those impacted the most.
